AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention aims to provide a bra and bra pad that can give the appearance of symmetry to asymmetrical breasts. This will be achieved by providing pellet, gel, or removable pads to fill the void in the smaller cup. Additionally, the invention also offers the option of individually filling the gel pads to the desired fullness.

Problems solved by technology

Uneven breasts have undesirable effects that can impact daily life, sexuality and confidence of affected women.
Often, the areola are puffy and protrude, making the breast look abnormal.
However, there are no bras that both (i) fit abnormally shaped breasts and (ii) cause both breasts to appear to be even.
